I replaced my aging Toyota Tacoma with a Cybertruck. When it finally came out, I was a bit disappointed with the Cybertruck’s range stats. I didn’t realistically expect it to have the full 500 miles promised in 2017, but when I finally bought mine a couple of months ago, my range expectations were admittedly low, but the actual range I got was impressive. Add to that the truck has the largest bed of the available full sized electric trucks, plus drive by wire, rear wheel steering, 48 volt architecture, etc., I am pretty happy. My biggest gripe was the lack of a spare tire.

Pros: impressive actual range
Cons: lack of a spare tire

F250 diesel guy here for 35 years in construction. I sold my last truck and moved to the model S. I was so impressed with the S that I bought a Foundation Cyberbeast. I use it like a truck maxing it out with no problems ever. I just finished a loaded 2500 km road trip this week. Range anxiety is a thing of the past. Believe the Tesla estimated range on the screen and charge when it says to. Simple and fun to drive. A sports-car truck. It does more than my diesel and powers my cottage for 5 days to boot. I did pick up a nail but that was easily fixed roadside with a plug and pistol grip inflator.

Pros: Simple and fun to drive
Mileage: 2500 km

SUMITOMO Tires

I have Sumitomo Encounter ATs that I like pretty well. On road manners are great and no complaints off-road. They don't look as "cool" as some of the other ATs but they work just as well.

Pros: great on road manners, no complaints off-road, work well

Yeah, they're alright. Brother had a set on his 2016 Fiesta and didn't have much ill to say. He reckoned they were noisier than the original Goodyear's that came with the car but was happy with the traction.

Pros: happy with the traction
Cons: noisier than original
Vehicle: Ford Fiesta

I needed new tires *ridiculously* fast, as the OEM set's treads wore out at an absurd rate. I honestly think I had a bad set, because even the tire guys who replaced them were shocked at how bad, and *inconsistent*, the wear was on 1-year-old tires. I got a 40% discount on them due to the warranty, but they were still $700.

Pros: warranty discount
Cons: tires wore out fast, inconsistent wear
